Ex Elettrofonica
On 2009, in Trastevere, a Rome’s most ancient and popularly rooted heart, Ex Elettrofonica is coming into being: an event that marks a turning point in the architectural co interpret the space as a site of interaction between architecture and the visual arts.
The spatial conception of Ex Elettrofonica is the work of Alessandra Belia and Federico Bistolfi, previous collaborators of the Rome studio of ZahaHadid, who have given life to a suspended environment, a container for art in which sensations to fuel the imagination can come to life. The indeterminacy of the shape and the absence of edges and corners generates a softened space, an organic blank limbo. A continuous skin physically envelops the structure, in a fluid space that, interacting with the art that it contains, seems in continuous evolution. A dynamic space, where art is the matrix of change.
Over the years Ex Elettrofonica, managed by Beatrice Bertini and Benedetta Acciari, has presented numerous exhibitions dedicated to young Italian and international artists, most of them were solo shows created as a dialogue between the art works and the exhibition space.
